L'isola che non c'è

Never Never Land

Second star to the right
this is the way
and then straight on ‘til morning
then you’ll find the road by yourself
that leads to Never Never Land.

Perhaps this will seem strange to you
But you’re thinking with your head and not your heart.
and now you’re almost convinced that
there can’t be a Never Never Land.

And to think,
that insanity is a fable,
it’s just fantasy
and the wise ones, the older ones,
know it can’t exist in reality!

I agree with you
there is no land
where there are neither saints nor heroes
and if there are no theives
if there’s never war
perhaps it really is
never never land, never never land

it is not an invention
not even a pun
if you believe in it that’s enough because
then you’ll find the road by yourself

I agree with you,
no thieves nor policemen
what kind of land is it?
no hatred and violence
no soldiers nor weapons
perhaps it really is
never never land, never never land

Second star to the right
this is the way
and then straight on ‘til morning
then you’ll find the road by yourself
that leads to Never Never Land.

and they make fun of you
if you keep on looking for it
but do not give up, because
those who have already given up
and laugh behind your back
perhaps are even crazier than you.
